The case against Guatemala is this In
suits have been offered to members of
the Mexican Legation there which it is
said have not been properly atoned for,
| and while the Mexican Government is
not acting Extensively toward Guatemala,
it is demanding just compensation for the
assaults on officers of the Legation. The
fight in Guatemala is largely clerical
conflict and assumes the aspect of re-
ligious war, and many politicians here
say that they do not believe the United
| States will interfere in so delicate a mat
| ter.
German Politics.
It is asserted that the interview be-
tween Bismarck and Kalnoky, Septem-
Der 18th, means new phase of the
Bulgarian question. 1t means check
on Russian Intervention, the neutrality
of Europe toward Prince Ferdinand leav
ing him to his own resources, to sink or
swim, and freedom of action for the Bull
garians, short of anarchy or troubling the
peace of neighboring States. Emperor
William and the Prince and Princess
William, Prince Frederick, Prince Leo
pold and General Won Moltke leave Stet-
tin to-day and arrive in Berlin this even
ing. The Emperor's sojourn in SUettin
was an unqualified success, the report of
the fainting fit being erroneous. The re-
turn of the Imperial party to Berlin fin
ally disposes of the reports that the
Emperor would have an interview with
the Gear. The success of the German
candidates at the elections for members
of the Bohemian Diet places the Czech
majority face to face with a compact body
of German deputies, armed with a spe
cial mandate to insist on the division of
Bohemia into two administrative dis |
tricts, in accordance with differences in
religion and language.
General BOulanger.
General Boulanger, in an address to |
the officers of his command after the
maneuvers by his corps at Clermont Fer
rand, September 18th, strongly urged the
necessity of giving wider exercise OF the
offensive tactics which were proper to the
French army. He concluded his re-
marks as follows: " We have to-day more
need than ever of the qualities of war
rior. No, the hour has not yet struck for
the disarmament of the people of all Eu
rope. 1t is madness to believe it and
crime to say it, for it points to peace at
any price, as the goal to which our coun-
try should aspire, and our enemies, who
often appraise us at our real value better
than we do ourselves, know we'll that we
have not got as far as that More than
that, we must continue to work. 1t is
for France"
